[libvirt] [PATCH] docs: Add callback-related info to virStream{Abort, Finish}

When one has a non-blocking stream and aborts or finishes it without removing the callback, any event loop invocation will trigger that callback, but it cannot be removed any more. We cannot remove the callback automatically from virStream{Abort,Finish} functions due to forward-compatibility. So let's at least document this behaviour, because it is not easy to find out the reason for.
